     Re:Newly-Formed Partnerships

Dear Ms. Baruch:

This letter is to confirm our telephone conver-

sation of Monday, March 21, 1983, regarding the aplica-

tion to newly-formed partnership of the premerger noti-

fication requirement of Title II of the Hart-Scott-

Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, Pub. L. 94-435,

90 Stat. 1390, 15 U.S.C. 18a.

Our understanding is that premerger notification

is not required of a partnership if the partnership is

newly formed and has either no assets or assets less than

$10 million other than assets to be used as consideration

in making an acquisition.

If our understanding is either incorrect or in-

complete, it would be appreciated if you would so advise

us. Thank you for your assistance.

With best regards.
